Tell us what you really think: Democrats back a ban on profits

Someone should have asked Scarlett Johansson last night if she believes in equal distribution of wealth,

It was a lot of fun watching all those professional politicians at the Democratic Convention get up and affirm their support for the free-market system - granted one with higher taxes and more controls.

But the amateurs in the trenches don't seem to believe in capitalism at all.

Just watch the video below in which Peter Schiff pretends to be supporting that proposition and gets good support from most of his interviewees.

After you watch that video, watch the one below it in which Schiff destroys Arthur Laffer, the genius behind supply-side economics, in a debate on the health of the economy just before the big collapse of 2008.

And then consider the fact that the Republican Party just nominated a ticket that still endorses the supply-side approach. VP nominee Paul Ryan even plans to run up the debt for 27 more years.

There were a lot of clueless people at both those major-party conventions.
